Man I cant wait to get all this stuff on my car. Heres a list of everything I got.

Mach 1 (Basically unpainted Cobra brakes) Brake kit with SS brake lines and 13" rotors
KYB Adjustable struts.
New Cobra A-arms with new balljoints and bushings.
New sway bar end links and bushings
New spring isolators.

The total of all the parts was around $950 shipped. The brakes make up about half of this. I wish I would have bought them a year ago when they were like $150 cheaper.

And you know you like the LSU/Vikings blanket. (My HS was the Vikings. Not the NFL team) My grandmother made me that ****. And its warm as ****.





Ill probalby have to get a few more parts like new tie rod ends and stuff.

Ill be hanging around here more often now.

I got the brakes from Buy Ford Racing Parts! I wish I would have bought them like a year ago though. They were like $150 cheaper for the red cobra ones.

Everything else was from www.stangsuspension.com
